“One of the best ways to learn new words and remember them was through art. For two weeks I spent my mornings learning as much Spanish as I could and every afternoon I taught 45 students using Theatre games and art projects. Things are very laid back in the islands so I could really develop my lesson plans any way I wanted to. To have students start out not really wanting to pay attention, and within a week seeing the same students come to class early and ask to sing the counting song, and bouncing out of their seats to tell you the vocabulary word and write it on the board, made me so incredibly proud of them! Absolutely an amazing experience!”
